What does justice look like through the eyes of a generation that grew up online, came of age in 2020, and refuses to accept that the world can't be better? Co-hosts Dilys Brooks and Nathan Brown sit down with three young adults — a congressional staffer, a medical student, and a political studies student — for an honest, inspiring, and occasionally uncomfortable conversation about faith, justice, hope, and what the next generation really wants from the church and the world.

CALL TO ACTION
This Week's Challenge
Find someone in your family, church, or community that you have some friendship with but who is from a different generation — whether older or younger. Ask them some of the same questions we asked Pax, Ashley, and Alanah.
Ask them: how do they see and experience the world differently than you? How might their formative experiences have been different from yours? And what are the justice issues they are passionate about?
For Young Adults
You are not too young, too inexperienced, or too small to make a difference. Pax, Alanah, and Ashley are proof. Find your lane and get in it.
